Synthesis of a Uniformly Spaced Array with Symmetric Amplitude Excitation by a Weighted Least-Square Method

Joseph A. Jervase, I.H. Zabalawi · Sultan Qaboos University Journal for Science · 2007 · 10.24200/squjs.vol3iss0pp47-55

A new, non-iterative technique for synthesizing equispaced linear arrays with symmetric excitation is proposed. The methods is on the computation of an eigenvector of an appropriate real, Symmetric and positive-definite matrix. This technique can be used to determine, given a n complete description of the desired radia …

Design of Ultra Fast RCE Photodetectors for Optical Communications systems

Joseph A. Jervase, Hadj Bourdoucen · Sultan Qaboos University Journal for Science · 2002 · 10.24200/squjs.vol7iss1pp101-107

Two key parameters for RCE photodetectors that govern their suitability for ultrafast optical communication systems are considered. These are the quantum efficiency and the bandwidth efficiency product. A closed analytical form has been derived for quantum efficiency, which incorporates the structural parameters of the …

Evolution of Axial-Field Electrical Machines

Abdullah Al‐Badi, Adel Gastli, Hadj Bourdoucen et al. · Sultan Qaboos University Journal for Science · 2000 · 10.24200/squjs.vol5iss0pp227-245

This paper is a review of axial-field electrical machines, which were at the origin of the invention of electrical machines such as the famous Faraday’s disk. The different configurations of the axial-field machines are presented along with their advantageous key steady state characteristics such as high efficiency and …

Photovoltaic Cells and Systems: Current State and Future Trends

Hadj Bourdoucen, Joseph A. Jervase, Abdullah Al‐Badi et al. · Sultan Qaboos University Journal for Science · 2000 · 10.24200/squjs.vol5iss0pp185-207

Photovoltaics is the process of converting solar energy into electrical energy. Any photovoltaic system invariably consists of solar cell arrays and electric power conditioners. Photovoltaic systems are reliable, quiet, safe and both environmentally benign and self-sustaining. In addition, they are cost-effective for a …
